Hey guys, I'm interested in painting the plastic door pieces in my 72 sabre. The photo is what it looks like now. Does anyone know what color this is "Offically?" An exact paint match would be nice, but I'm not sure where to begin looking. Will SEM aerosols work on the plastic? I would think aerosol would be easier and look decent if I took my time. Any info or opinions are appreciated :TU:
The color is called Sandalwood. The door panels are Light Sandalwood and the dash and other dark parts are called Dark Sandalwood. The Fisher Body name for the color is Light Sandalwood for the light areas (Fisher code #3989) and the Dark areas are Fisher code #4110 (Dark Beige). Don't ask me how they got "beige" out of that color...looks kinda like green to me.
yes sem makes special paint for plastic or vynil I just painted mine today cost about 8$ per can, or you can go to wesco ,or local car paint shop they can make the paint and put it in can for ,it cost a little more but if you can,t find the right color in can ,that,s the only way to go .good luck.
Try this product. I found a distributor in France, but you'd better look in the US. The result was great on Vinyl and plastics, but mine is an easy black one. http://www.kolorbond.ltd.uk/otherproducts.htm
SEM vinyl coat I do restorations and interiors on boats and cars and have used SEM products. For the best results, I buy the paint in pint cans and spray it with a small HVLP gun. Spray cans work OK on flat smooth surfaces but with the HVLP gun , I can vary the amount and pattern to cover ridges an recess. PM me or call 507-280-0083. Mike
